TL;DR: In this article, the authors used historical archives, ice-core data and tree-ring records to reconstruct the spatial and temporal climate response to the Samalas eruption, finding that 1258 and 1259 experienced some of the coldest Northern Hemisphere summers of the past millennium.

TL;DR: In conifers growing at high latitudes and altitudes, the maximum density of tree rings is closely related to climate but is difficult and very expensive to measure as discussed by the authors, which is why it is difficult to measure.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured pine latewood width, density, and stable carbon isotope ratios at two sites, separated in altitude by 400 m, close to the forest limit on a south-facing slope in the western French Alps.

TL;DR: In this paper, the first dendrochronologically-based and calendar-dated Neoglacial glacier chronology for the Mont Blanc massif, French Alps is presented. But it is based on the analysis of over 240 glacially buried Pinus cembra subfossil logs and wood remains found either embedded-in-till or as detrital material in the Mer de Glace right lateral moraine.
